VIRGINIA POLITICS.
TIE RECENT CONFERENCE IN THE
CITY OF WASHINGTON.
Blair Bill, Internal Revenue Taxes, Cou-
pons, aud Extra Session OF
the Legislature.

Saturday night the Governor had a
conference in Washington city with Mr..
Barbour, several other members of the
Virginia delegation in Congress, Gene
raj Payne, General Taliaferro, Mr.
Goode, Mr.. Blair, member of the State
Committee from Danville, md other
leading Virginians.
1t was agreed that the meeting should
be kept from the newspaper.men, and
so it was for few days. 1t is, however,
now known that Governor Lee urged
upon the congressman to do all in their
power to pass the Blair bill, and TO
secure therepeal of the internal-revenue
tax on tobacco and fruit-brandy
He said that he was in receipt of letters
from all parts of the State, and was also
constantly seeing citizens of all the
counties, and that in his opinion Vir-
ginians expected these measures OF re-
lief. His views were heartily concurred
in. The Virginia members will leave
no stone unturned to meet the Just ex-
pectations of their constituents but
so far as the House of Representative
is concerned it is a large body. Il
moves slowly, and members cannot
always set the floor to make motions.
But our members will do what they
can.

EXTRA SESSION.

From talk about national affairs the
Transition to Virginia matters was easy
1t was remarked that if the United
States Supreme Court decides for us in
the hd6Cds-cOrpUs cases our condition
will be much improved ; if not, We will
be where We are to-day.
An extra session at this moment did
not seem to he regarded as either dcsi-
rable or necessary; but it was said that
the rcvisers of the Code will now very
soon complete the cOdifcatioR of the
laws. 1t is, however, not settled
whether they will write a detailed ex-
planatory report on the changes made
and reasons therefor. If they do, that
will require at least two months work
The new Code will, when ready to be
submitted, require to be considered ~
an extra session. Previous codes have
been so considered. 1t is impossible
that the Legislature when it is crowded
with regular business should be able to
give a work of this character the length
Of time. the patient attention, the ear
nest thought that complete revision
of the laws demand. But when assem-
bled to act uPon the Code, the Lcgisla-
ture could also take cognizance of debt
measures. If itwere called for March
18th, having forty days to sit it would
he here at least until April 18th, and
then, if necessity arose. it could make
provision for the license taxes.
These taxes are due before May Is.
and amount TO $500. 600
Not very large part of this revenue
has ever been paid in coupons-proba-
bly, never will be as long as public sen
timent continues as at present-but |
still the exigency OF the situation may |
necessitate some legislation.
THE RESULT.
There were, of course, no agreements
entered into at the Washington confer !
enee The congressman will do their
duty as they see it. The Governor viii
do his duty as It appears to him.
And so things stand.

A QUESTION OF RIGHT.

Defendant has no right, said Mr..
Meredith, to advertise that he will de-
fend, without cost, all persous who had
used coupons more than any other law
yer of this State. Employment 10y the
English bondholders might warrant
him in advertising that he would de-
fend the title to their property, but did
not authorize him to advertise that he
would defend other persons who held
similar securities, but who had not pre-
yiously retained defendant as counsel,
and the fact that defendant had 80 ad-
yertised and titus induced all persons
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1887-02-09
CITATION OF ArTHORITIES.

In support of these points Mr.. Mere
dith cited numerous authorities, but it
was on the second and last leading
point that he rested his case.
He said that the plea was really an
attempt to show authority to do the
acts charged in the indictment by rea-
son of defendant being counsel for the
English bondhollers.
Mr.. Meredith said that if the coupons
used 10y ID. Dyson, the prosecutor in
this case, had been coupons bought from
the English bondholders or their agent,
he was not prepared to say whether this
fact would not be complete defence.
But the missing link in defendants plea
was the failure TO aver that the coupons
had been bought from the bondholders,
who had retained defendant to defend
the title of parties TO whom they had
sold or assigned their coupons.
The fact, indeed, was that Mr.. Dyson
had bought the coupons in market
overt, and that defendant in advertising
that he would defend all persons who
brought suit for refusing TO receive
coupons was a plain admission that he
had violated the law and was seeking
TO stir up suits in this State. The Eng
lish bondholders must have been in
terested in the subject-matter of this
controversy, and not simply have held
similar securities.
